And then tell us we're all sinners and we need the magic Jesus prayer to save us from hell. Hmmm . . . <BR/><BR/>Frodosaves: I am convinced that is the aim of thought adultery. Convince people random thoughts are sin, then tell them you've got the only answer, and they can only get it from you for a price.<BR/><BR/>Denelian: Storge- the natural affection felt between parents and chilren.

If at the same time you provide salvation and succor from the thing which you've convinced them is evil, you've got a very effective horizontal monopoly on your hands.FrodoSaveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15224011199139875343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1334761054277672365.post-12015967791785494942009-03-24T21:38:00.000-04:002009-03-24T21:38:00.000-04:00Nice cover story PersonalFailure. :)Figured I'...Nice cover story PersonalFailure. :)<BR/><BR/>Figured I'd post here since the SMRT thread has gone into a very weird place, and that combined with PZ Myers recent snail-porn posts is making me wonder whether we need another, far far creepier, definition of lust...<BR/><BR/>I wasn't thinking about other instances of beauty when I was writing the post, but you're right: number 1 & 2 can be experienced as a result of a sunset, a tropical rainforest, a pet bird or, indeed, the photo a few posts down. ;)<BR/><BR/>Despite this fundy reactions seem to confirm, time and time again, that they either think that recognition of beauty is lust, or they are really <I>really</I> lonely people.<BR/><BR/>I wonder how an actual fundy would respond to the question? I wonder if Ray would humour me...Quasarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04219765882891909223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1334761054277672365.post-37120510400199300372009-03-24T18:23:00.000-04:002009-03-24T18:23:00.000-04:00I never feel lust; damn.I never feel lust; damn.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03277613176895587358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1334761054277672365.post-29667671588873249762009-03-24T15:26:00.000-04:002009-03-24T15:26:00.000-04:00I kinda doubt he's really listening to anything sh...I kinda doubt he's really listening to anything she has to say.
